Caution Be careful not to get ink on your hands or clothing.

Manually Cleaning the Print Cartridges and Print Cartridge Cradle

In order to properly clean the print cartridges and cradle, you will need distilled or bottled water and cotton swabs or a similar lint-free absorbent material that will not stick to the cartridges.

1Press the Power Button to turn the printer on, then lift the top cover.

2After the print cartridges move, unplug the power cord from the back of the printer.

Warning Keep new and used print cartridges out of the reach of children.

3Remove the print cartridges and place them wide side down on a piece of paper.

Caution Do NOT touch the print cartridge ink nozzles or copper contacts. Touching these parts will result in clogs, ink failure, and bad electrical connection. Also, do NOT remove the copper strips; these are required electrical contacts.
